Applications must be originally written in Objective-C, C, C++, or JavaScript as executed by the iPhone OS WebKit engine, and only code written in C, C++, and Objective-C may compile and directly link against the Documented APIs (e.g., Applications that link to Documented APIs through an intermediary translation or compatibility layer or tool are prohibited).
Seems like there's no way to do it in Capybara, unfortunately. But if you're running your tests with the Selenium driver (and probably other drivers that support JavaScript), you can hack it
Because javascript has something called "Hoisting" which makes your code do things it doesn't look like it should be doing. Basically, that means a javascript interpreter will move all var declarations, regardless of where they are in the body of a function, to the top of the function body.
When is a global variable not a variable? When it is a property of the global object.
Here is a set of additive color model conversion algorithms that I found published on Wikipedia and have implemented in JavaScript.
Inspired by a snippet of code in Oliver Steele’s legendary Functional library, here’s a lightweight tool to help keep track of JavaScript invocations. It works in Chrome, Safari, Firebug and IE8.
Less.js is a JavaScript implementation of LESS that’s run by your web browser. As any JavaScript, you include a link to the script in your HTML, and…that’s that. LESS is now going to process LESS code so instead of including a link to a CSS file, you’ll include a link directly to your LESS code. That’s right, no CSS pre-processing, LESS will handle it live.
The difference is that return false; takes things a bit further in that it also prevents that event from propagating (or “bubbling up”) the DOM.
CSS Level 3 brings with it some incredibly powerful styling features. Rounded corners, soft drop shadows, gradient fills, and so on. These are the kinds of elements our designer friends love to use because they make for attractive sites, but are difficult and time-consuming to implement, involving complex sprite images, extra non-semantic markup, large JavaScript libraries, and other lovely hacks.
We didn’t want to leave front-end developers in the dark when their Javascript throws errors, so we’ve added a Hoptoad notifier for Javascript!
Run your Jasmine specs without a browser
The Holy Grail of testing for front-end development; execute browser-less, console-based, javascript + DOM code right from within your Rails test suite.
Johnson wraps JavaScript in a loving Ruby embrace. It embeds the Mozilla SpiderMonkey JavaScript runtime as a C extension.
The jQuery project is really excited to announce the work that we’ve been doing to bring jQuery to mobile devices. Not only is the core jQuery library being improved to work across all of the major mobile platforms, but we’re also working to release a complete, unified, mobile UI framework.
This is more tricky than it should be because url_for, asset_path, etc. all rely on different mechanisms.
Anyway, you can use the attached trait like this:
class ExampleController < ApplicationController
does 'host_enforcement', :for => 'some_action'
end
Short explanation:
asset_host is used for links to stylesheets and javascriptsasset_host belongs to ActionController::Base -- changes are persistent and will not be reset after a requestrewrite_options is used by the ..._path methods in the viewsAttached (see below) is some code to allow using unobtrusive JavaScript on pages fetched with an AJAX call.
After you included it, you now do not use the usual
$(function() {
$('.some_tag').activateStuff();
});
any more, but instead you write
$.unobtrusive(function() {
$(this).find('.some_tag').activateStuff();
});
that is
$.unobtrusive() instead of $()
$(this)
Normal pages work as before (your $.unobtrusive functions are ca...
